Abstract:
:We evaluated the association between prostate cancer non-coding RNA 1 (PRNCR1) polymorphisms and the risk of developing gastric cancer (GC) and GC subgroups in Korea. A case-control study was conducted with 437 GC patients and 357 healthy controls using a TaqMan genotyping assay. A chi-squared test, binary logistic regression, and genetic models were used to explore the association between five PRNCR1 polymorphisms and GC risk. After adjusting for gender and age, overall analyses using the recessive model indicated that the rs13252298 GG genotype was significantly associated with increased risk of intestinal-type gastric cancer (IGC). In the stratification analyses, the recessive model indicated that the rs1016343 TT genotype was significantly associated with decreased GC risk in individuals aged <60 years showing lymph node metastasis (LNM)-negative results. The rs13252298 GG genotype in the recessive model showed increased GC risk in subjects aged ≥60 years showing LNM-positive results and those aged ≥60 years in tumor stage III. In the dominant model, the rs16901946 combined genotype (AG/GG) was significantly associated with increased GC risk in subjects aged <60 years with tumor stage III. In the recessive model, the rs16901946 GG genotype was associated with decreased risk of GC and IGC in males aged ≥60 years. Thus, genetic variations in PRNCR1 may contribute to susceptibility to GC.
